The CUE program opened its doors in March, 1981 with 75 students enrolled. Today, more than 300 CUE students currently attend classes on subjects ranging from Shakespeare to computers. There are no tests, grades or pressures--just learning for interest and enjoyment. CUE's varied courses are taught by distinguished faculty members and professionals; all classes are held during the day on the Queens College campus.

For this moderate fee, students can enroll in CUE classes, join CUE social events, participate in a yearly summer film festival and attend a free Friday lunch and lecture series. CUE members are also welcome in the Queens College Library reading rooms and may use the facilities at the Fitzgerald gym and pool, for a discounted fee of $15.00.
